Aura from the island of Sappho in Beijing

A year ago, I was flying to Beijing, invited by the poet LanLan for an exhibition at Zero Space Gallery, in the famous 798 Art District in Beijing. It was an amazing experience for me and I had a fabulous exhibition, with some of the best prints of my life. Between them, four prints on silk of my female underwater pictures. I had never thought that photos can be so sensual and mystic. This is a short video, where I am trying to include all those strong feelings and impressions I had during the trip. Just to say that in the opening night, LanLan presented her latest collection of poems, titled "Sappho, A loose bouquet and some of the most well known women poets of Beijing, read their poems, in honour of Lesvos and of Sappho.
